Title: Dynamic text buttons
Post by: k3ch0ng on June 28, 2012, 03:53:58 pm

Hi,

Im trying to create buttons with dynamic text e.g. multiply level buttons each assign a grade once the level is complete.

Whats the best approach to do this ?

Also is there a way to find out which button is pressed within the messagename function, or do I have to assign each button a new funtion name ?

If you hook the buttons up using the event mechanism
http://unikronsoftware.com/2dtoolkit/doc/html/classtk2d_button.html#a58db4d481f8169b557d8d8d6bcede732

instead of just using the targetObject | messageName, you get a link to the tk2dButton which invoked the callback. You can then use tk2dButton.gameObject to get the gameObject that invoked it, and so on.

Cool thanks. If anyones intrested the code is something like this:

Just drag all the buttons u need into the buttons array.


   public tk2dButton[] buttons;

   void Awake () {
      for(int n = 0; n < buttons.Length; n++)
         buttons[n].ButtonUpEvent += ButUp;
   }
   
    void ButUp(tk2dButton b)
    {
      Debug.Log("ButUp " + b.gameObject.name);
    }
